Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kpilot

Fresh 7.10 Kubuntu Gutsy installation, installed kpilot with apt-get.
Palm Zire 71 which previously worked with serial cradle in Kubuntu 7.04 on this 
machine.

Installed kpilot, put Zire71 in serial cradle, started kpilot, ran
connection wizard, aimed kpilot at /dev/ttyS0, at which point kpilot
dependably crashes with no trace info or error messages. Same symptoms
starting from menu or command line.

Repeated with USB cradle, but visor module is not loaded and udev does not 
respond. Modified 60-symlinks.rules according to
http://www.nabble.com/Re:-can't-sync-Treo-650-to-Ubuntu-7.10-Gutsy-p13761810.html
and manually modprobed visor module. 

Pressing Hotsync button now causes USB detection and /dev/pilot is
created, but kpilot crashes as with the serial cradle.

Problems:
Visor module not automagically loaded
Udev rules do not work with Zire71
In any event, kpilot cannot proceed after detecting (at least) the Zire 71 with 
either serial or USB connections.

With the USB cradle, using [pilot-xfer -p /dev/pilot -l] and [pilot-xfer
-p /dev/pilot -b Zire71] seem to work fine.

This is, unfortunately, a showstopper bug for me: I -must- be able to
sync that PDA!

What other information can I provide?
